I’ve stopped strangers at the pub, on the street – wherever – to take their portraits, and there have been people stopping by while I was shooting on the streets. It’s been a great way for me to get to know and engage with different local communities.
To see a project like this one, you would ordinarily need to go to an art gallery. Instead, this project seeks to bring art to the people – to make it accessible and to make it unmissable.
Events such as these are an opportunity to promote harmony and inclusion by giving people a firsthand experience of cultural diversity in our area.
I’m passionate about bringing art to the people and making it accessible. And that’s one of the reasons why I like public art. It’s fun, it’s exciting, it’s engaging, IT’S IN YOUR FACE!
